It's been a while since I posted about my square foot gardens.  I actually added another square and put some loofah and more corn in that square.  Pictures are just not coming out good.  The only one I like is this one of Bluto as he helps me repel the insects that love the squash.  If you look at the very top of the left corner you can catch a glimpse of Bossanova.  

All varieties of tomatoes are doing well.  San Antonio is a flood or famine type of region and I guess those tomatoes like drought.  

Next week I will try for better pix but I swear everything just looks green and it all blends in together. 

As I was upon my secret journey last week, I didn't have the opportunity to post my weekly post on my square foot garden.  A lot has happened in this week.  Check out the pix from last post and you will see that my garden is flourishing.  The big bush in the middle square is my frijoles bush.  I need to set up a pole so they can expand upwards. 

And here Bossanova checks me out as I tend to my garden.  All we need is rain to make these pictures more perfect. 

After a health dose of moonlight from the Super Moon last night, my garden is thriving on this the first day of spring.  Three weeks in and I am impressed with my early results.

Radish.  Radishes were the first to germinate in my square foot gardens.  This means that in three to four weeks I can harvest this easy to grow vegetable.  LOL.  I only really like radishes in my pozole .  

Wonder what vegetable will come in second?  My money is on lettuce. 

It's a good sign when you see a rainbow right after planting your square foot gardens, right?

With a cameo from Bossanova, 18 bags of new soil should be enough for my 48 squares in my Square Foot Garden.

These are still desperate times and more than ever, a square foot garden, is a good idea.  

Last year, for instance, I was able to take a nice bite out of my grocery bills by growing my own produce.
